A poorer division of this maiden handicap with the improving Other Routes looking the best option. His run at Folkestone 17 days ago was a good effort as the race was run in a fast time and with the rest of this field looking poor he is the TEAMtalk choice. Likely favourite will be the Sir Mark Prescott-trained Arachine but his form is nothing special and the handicapper has taken no chances. Ela Re is an interesting candidate stepping down in trip and could reward each-way backers.
